The Good Brothers win Impact Tag Team titles at Slammiversary

Posted on by Bryan Rose

New Impact Tag Team Champions were crowned at tonight’s Slammiversary event.

The Good Brothers (Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows) defeated champions Violent by Design (Rhino and Doering), Fallah Bahh and the debuting No Way (formerly No Way Jose in WWE), and the team of Rich Swann and Willle Mack in a four-way match. The finish had Rhino setting up for the gore, but Anderson hit a cutter, then Gallows came in as the two hit the Magic Killer, giving Good Brothers the win and the titles for a second time.

Violent by Design had been champions since the Impact that aired on May 17, when they defeated Finjuice to win the titles. They defended the titles under the Freebird rule, giving Rhino, Joe Doering, and Deaner their first Tag Team title win and Eric Young his third. 

No Way was a surprise tag team partner for Fallah Bahh. It was announced prior to Slammiversary that TJP, Bahh’s tag team partner, would be unable to make it to the show.

The other tag team titles in Impact, the Knockouts Tag Team titles, also changed hands. The Decay’s Rosemary and Havok defeated Fire ‘n’ Flava (Tasha Steelz and Kiera Hogan) to win the titles during the pre-show prior to Slammiversary.

Big Cass appears at Impact Rebellion, replaces Eric Young

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Big Cass appeared on tonight’s Impact Rebellion event under a new name, filling in for Eric Young.

Cass appeared at Rebellion under the name W. Morrissey. He replaced Eric Young in a match where he teamed up with the rest of Violent by Design (Joe Doering, Rhino, and Deaner) to take on James Storm, Chris Sabin, Willie Mack, and Eddie Edwards. Morrisey picked up the win for his team, pinning Mack after hitting the East River Crossing. After the match, Morrissey continued to attack Mack as the rest of Violent by Design posed on the entrance ramp. 

Right before the match, Young said in a backstage segment he was injured and unable to compete tonight. He told someone off-camera that they were not ready for the truth, or to join Violent by Design, but they were ready for the opportunity to show who they are.

Cass has been making appearances in the independent scene since February. He had disappeared from pro wrestling following an altercation at a WrestlePro show in September 2019 where he was kicked out of the building after an altercation with Joey Janela backstage.
